    I mostly mean that when transferring a large playlist from something like Spotify it can become very noticeable how many songs are completely missing from the platform

    The statistics are 2 years old but out of 40k songs it went something like this

    Deezer: 259 tracks missing

    Apple Music: 529 tracks missing

    Tidal: 672 tracks missing

    Qobuz: 2572 tracks missing

    At least for me personally Apple Music had all my Spotify tracks in lossless while Tidal was a close 2nd where qobuz was straight up missing multiple artists, I have not tried deezer yet but I plan to later this month.

    As long as it is volume matched and the track is at least cd quality then it should all sound the same as lossless is lossless assuming you can’t hear above 22khz (although on all the platforms it is not that uncommon for artists to upload fake lossless files)

    Lossy however is a mess with how every codec can sound different at different bitrates and it is a fairly deep rabbit hole you can fall into, even with something like AAC there are multiple types that all sound different, AAC-LC, FDK-AAC, QuickTime-AAC etc.

    Well to be honest I believe if I was given the option to not be weighed down by such feelings then I would take it.

    Really would make it easier to make genuine connections with people without my subconscious doing some funky shit.

    Now I could be wrong and I am assuming of course but I feel like a lot of those (not all) who are free from such urges prefer it that way and even if given the option to feel those things they wouldn’t take it.
